The Future of Higher Education: Preparing Students for an AI-Driven Workforce

from The Mark White Show · host Mark White

Tonight, I’m joined by Dr. Antoinette “Toni” Farmer-Thompson, president of Strayer University, for an important conversation about the changing face of higher education and the rapidly growing impact of artificial intelligence on the workforce. Today’s college student may be a working adult, a parent, a career changer, or someone trying to gain new skills while balancing the responsibilities of everyday life. At the same time, AI is changing the workplace at an incredible pace, leaving many people wondering how they can prepare and avoid being left behind. Dr. Farmer-Thompson shares why AI fluency is quickly becoming a new form of literacy, how higher education must better connect learning to real-world careers, and what working adults should consider when choosing a college or university. I hope you’ll join us for this timely conversation and share the show with others who may be considering the next step in their education or career. Real stories. Real people. Real impact.
